Required Hardware

23 Jul 2018 

Think ahead on hardware as this stuff is small and difficult to find. M3 misc nylon hardware arrives on 23 Jul 2018 

3.5mm bullet connectors were also an afterthought. I made a connector holder by drilling a 1/8" hole in a block of wood to hold the connectors while soldering wires to them
